The effects of what appear to be black holes are seen in astronomy. Just not 
in the lab as such.

A fair amount of evidence, actually.

Basically, yes. Some types of black hole structures are thought to work that 
way. Like, a rotating black hole can be traversed like that without hitting 
the singularity, supposedly.

It's all math, tho, with no actual physics evidence beyond what the math 
implies. If reality isn't isomorphic to the math after all, it won't work.
